She was predeceased by her brother Jim Harding (Joie) and her daughterin-law Noreen. Marguerite's passion for music, warm and compassionate heart, and ready smile drew people to her wherever she went and resulted in friendships that provided laughter and support through the last months of her life, including those with her adored and faithful friend Janet Hamilton; Brock Fraser and family; Doreen Alton; and her adopted" musical children Katherine Hedlund, David Brown, Helena Cavan and Timmy and Nikki Chooi. Marguerite shared a musical bond and special relationship with her niece and namesake, Marguerite Trudean (Trudi) Conrad, and also took great interest in the musical careers of her niece Angela Carter, nephew David Conrad and great-niece Tegan Peemoeller. Marguerite's exceptional musical talent was evident from the age of three, and she was a featured performer in her first recital at the age of four. She graduated from the Royal School of Music (now the Royal Conservatory of Music). Kent and Marguerite were married in 1945 and raised their children in Calgary, Banff and finally Southern California, where Marguerite became a talented piano teacher whose students won numerous prestigious awards. Marguerite taught a love of music in addition to theory and dynamics, and several of her students made music their profession. Many more kept classical music as an integral part of their adult lives and kept in touch with Mrs. Green" until the end of her life. Although Marguerite officially retired in the early 1980's when she and Kent left California, students needing her unique talents continued to find their way to her in Bellingham and, later, Victoria. Marguerite was an affectionate and attentive mother to her four children, and maintained a welcoming home. She was small but mighty, always there when needed by friends and family. She will be missed by all who knew her. The family is profoundly grateful to the doctors, nurses, volunteers and support staff at Victoria Hospice, whose compassionate, affectionate and respectful care eased Marguerite's final weeks. Our gratitude also to the staff at The Cedars for their support and many acts of kindness over the last three years.
